Property of a Lady

There are a few essentials that a lady should never be without in her boudoir; items such as a touch of lace, creamy satin or a bit of marabou to make you feel absolutely feminine. As spring is on our doorstep I have been adding accent pieces to various rooms by exchanging throws for blankets on sofas and adding soft colored pillows to chairs. These personal choices give the house a level of comfort, especially since it is that time of year where you want to be surrounded by lovely soft things in light colors.

Roses

No home is complete without the added touch of flowers strategically placed in various rooms. I could not resist placing this group of soft pink roses in the bathroom!

This Natori chemise in its gorgeous, glorious color of fuchsia with gold trim is not only a fabulous garment to wear, but I enjoy hanging this piece on a satin hanger over my armoire for decorative purposes.

Now… who can end the day without choosing a decadent piece of chocolate? These items are the ultimate accent pieces.

Completely and thoroughly enjoy!!

Facets of Spring

On Saturday afternoon the sun began shining through a tremendous wall of clouds for a brief moment, and I was so excited at the prospect of a bit of warmth that I grabbed my camera and headed out the front door.

Everywhere I looked spring was pushing its way through the surface of the rich soil. My neighbors were out planting annuals, but I preferred photographing a few of the perennials that I look forward to seeing every year!

Here are a few items that are blooming prolifically in the house an Amaryllis and a few onions from the larder, we are definitely springing forward!!
